1 Perfluorooctane sulfonate-induced insulin resistance is mediated by protein kinase B pathway. perfluorooctane sulfonic acid insulin Homo sapiens
2 Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), a persistent organic pollutant, is blamed to be associated with the incidence of insulin resistance in the general human population. perfluorooctane sulfonic acid insulin Homo sapiens
3 Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), a persistent organic pollutant, is blamed to be associated with the incidence of insulin resistance in the general human population. perfluorooctane sulfonic acid insulin Homo sapiens
4 In this study, we found that PFOS inhibited the phosphorylation and activation of protein kinase B (AKT), a key mediator of cellular insulin sensitivity, in human hepatoma HepG2 cells. perfluorooctane sulfonic acid insulin Homo sapiens
5 Eventually, the inhibition of AKT led to insulin resistance in PFOS-treated cells. perfluorooctane sulfonic acid insulin Homo sapiens
